Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Coating materials and production technology in people's lives have been widely used, as well as in the medical field has also been booming.
OBJECTIVE: To review the applications coating materials and technology applications in the medical field.
METHODS: We searched from January 2000 to December 2010 Wanfanga database for related articles, and the key words were "coating, medicine, application", and the language was limited to Chinese. A total of 506 documents retrieved. PubMed database was also searched from January 2000 to December 2010 for related articles, the key words were "coating, medicine, application" and the language was limited to English. 108 documents were retrieved. Finally, 30 papers were included in result analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The coating technology has been applied in all aspects of life. Its application in the medical field has become more prosperous, and has developed a lot of coating materials with good biocompatibility and less rejection applied in clinical area. This paper introduces different coating stents in the stomatology, cardiopulmonary bypass, orthopedics in order to develop new coating materials and more rational and effective drug combinations, based on which drug-eluting stent treatment may produce a qualitative leap.
